Overview

• The Munich I public prosecutor’s office provisionally ruled the June 7 shooting at Theresienwiese lawful based on clear video evidence of the suspect charging officers with a knife.
• Spokesperson Anne Leiding confirmed that two officers fired a total of nine shots—four by one and five by the other—and that investigators will not pursue manslaughter charges.
• The Bavarian State Criminal Police Office continues its procedural review and awaits a detailed ballistics analysis to establish how many shots struck the 30-year-old suspect.
• During the knife attack, a 56-year-old man and a 25-year-old woman were lightly injured before officers intervened.
• The case follows standard German protocols for deadly force investigations, combining prosecutorial oversight, state criminal police inquiry and forensic ballistics work.
